A Visual Novel, do not except a game
They have to clarify that is not a game perse, you have to threat this game as a visual novel, not as a game with decisions and such and the page should clarify that. To The Moon is a point and click game made in RPG Maker, but don't spect any rpg mechanics aside from a inventory system, no combat, no level up system, no items, no economy. The most "game" moments this game haves is puzzles and some specific moments were you have to move your character in certain ways to not advance a linear hallway, there's also no major preassure to hold you down, even if the story tell you so. I'm putting my critique in the most crucial parts of the game, the story, music and art. It's pretty good overall, silly, sad, drama, it has a lot of charm and heart, it's really that pretentious as some people may point, but some things don't get explain throught the adventure, you will notice while playing it. If you are sentimental, i'm really sure you will like this game. The writting is a little unproffesional, seems it is a trend with modern heavy-story based indie tittles, lots of pop-cult references without too much reason, unnecesary swears?, not good balance between the drama moments and the silly ones, lots of jokes like non-stop, and so on. The music is really good, catching piano tones, some vocals even, etc. You won't be dissapointed here. The art is on point, everything looks good, the handmade art even if it's little is also really good, it's a pleasure to look. The main characters relationship is also strange, they talk each other like if they were kids. And you may know these types of relationship, The Proffesional and the Unproffesional, The Serious one and the Funny one. It's really easy to spot and relate, even if the male character is kinda annoying. The legnth of this game isn't really that special either, you could end this game on a night, sit and relax. In conclusion, you definetly need to play this at least once in your life.

Beauitful but often heavy-handed
To The Moon is a sweet tale of how we bring life to a satisfying conclusion, but it ends up being more heavy-handed than profound. The music is beautiful and the artwork very good, but there is little gameplay here. Other than occasional adventures in pixel-hunting, mostly To The Moon just involves click through dialogue boxes. Which means all the value rides on the story. And while it has some nice elements highlighting aspects to life normally ignored in video games (e.g. childhood trauma, medical disabilities, etc.), the narrative feels very plot-heavy and staged for sentimental value. It's like a Lifetime movie turned into a video game. The dialogue wasn't novel enough and the story wasn't inspiring enough to keep me focused and invested. I finished in a little over 4 hrs, and while I certainly don't regret it, it left me feeling like this could have been so much more.

Quick, easy, good
Good story, quite sad and romantic - but the main characters are just there to do a job and though humane, retain some detachment and are sometimes critical, which makes things interesting and introduces some humour. Won't take long, so a good way to spend a couple of evenings if you're feeling tired and need a bit of an escape. No real challenge to the gameplay if that's what you're looking for.
